Product Description

── Reproduction of the AC limited express train 789 series 1000 series that is active in the electrified section of Hokkaido centered on Sapporo!

[Product introduction]
- JR Hokkaido's 789 series 1000 trains are operated as [Kamuy] between Sapporo and Asahikawa, and [Suzuran] between Sapporo and Muroran.
- The origin of [Kamuy] comes from the Ainu language for a high-ranking spiritual being with deity.
- Inheriting the high cab design and urban silver impression of the 785 series, it appeared in 2007 as the L Express [Super Kamuy] and Rapid [Airport], replacing the conventional 781 series.
- Sharp headlights, a short but well-balanced five-car train, fully covered underfloor equipment to prevent snow buildup, JR Hokkaido's unique reserved seat service [U-seat], etc. In addition to its charm, we use KATO's unique technology to recreate the modern silver metallic stainless steel body and the difference in texture of the steel forehead.
- Starting with this product, a slotless motor is used in the power unit, and the product number, retail price, and JAN code will change accordingly.
- There are no changes to other specifications from the previous product.

[Product features]

- Equipment specific to vehicles in snowy areas is also realistically reproduced, such as fully covered underfloor equipment to prevent snow accumulation and snow guards on the roof of the vehicle adjacent to the pantograph area.
- In addition to the snow plow's skirt, the one attached to the top truck is also reproduced.
